It comes as no shock that today, The National Society of Film Critics, which consists of critics that are selected and then elected from various major outlets, named Drive My Car the best picture of 2021 during their 56th annual meeting.

COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY It’s highly likely that Drive My Car may get some love at the Oscars following today’s announcement. Previous year’s winners have included Nomadland and Parasite, both going on to win Best Picture at the Oscars their respective years. While a win is not guaranteed for the Japanese film, Parasite’s historic win as the first international film to win the Academy Award for Best Picture sets a precedent for the film.
